Sandra and Andrew had a beautiful backyard wedding in Okanagan Falls, BC. Right on the lake, it was a picturesque spot. Sandra and Andrew proved right away to be a fun couple. Along with their great wedding party, they kept an upbeat attitude despite the scorching hot temperature. Sandra chose the super cute Matheson Creek Farm to do the portraits section of the day and they were so nice to let us take turns standing in their huge fruit cooler to cool off! Sandra, Andrea, my second shoot Carley and I were all crammed in at one point. haha. Sandra and Andrew were all smiles and a great pair – I thoroughly enjoyed capturing their big day! : )

Katie and Wayne traveled all the way from Australia for their wedding here, in Kelowna, BC! Katie is from the Okanagan and met Aussie Wayne on an African safari! How cool is that! These two are so perfect for each other. They’re both extremely sweet and I liked them immediately. Katie and I have done all of our correspondence over the past year via email and she said when we first met, ” I feel like I already know you!” I couldn’t agree more and I had such a fantastic time capturing Katie and Wayne’s wedding at Summerhill Estate Winery. Congrats you two!
